As we move through the Journey East II adventure, we’ll add interesting links throughout the site. As the kids experience events and sights, we’ll add those links on the intinerary and/or the “day by day” pages.

We’ll also try to compile all related links here as well. Bear with us, this is a journey for us as well . . .
